Realpolitiks 3: Earth and Beyond Set for Early Access Release

Prague, Czech Republic – On October 16, 2024, game developers Jujubee and publishers Fulqrum Publishing announced the upcoming launch of their latest grand strategy game, Realpolitiks 3: Earth and Beyond. This title is slated to enter Early Access on October 22, 2024, offering a new dimension to strategy gaming by allowing players to extend their political ambitions beyond Earth, reaching into the Solar System.

Realpolitiks 3 promises an expansive experience, starting with a choice among 195 countries, faithfully reconstructed from our world. Players begin by managing domestic policies and economic growth, deciding whether to steer their nations with a democratic hand or an authoritarian fist. The game challenges players to navigate complex international relationships through trade, diplomacy, or warfare, potentially leading to alliances with global blocs like NATO or the EU, or opting for isolationism to forge a unique path.

The gameplay intensifies as players transition to the late game phase, offering the opportunity to colonize lunar and planetary neighbors like Mars and Venus. The title promises an integration of futuristic technology and space exploration, with players weighing decisions that could lead to interplanetary dominion or disaster.

Realpolitiks 3 will launch with three distinct game modes: Realism, Overdrive, and Sandbox. Realism offers gameplay close to current world dynamics, with international blocs influencing politics. Overdrive mode ups the ante by allowing confrontations among major nations to be more intense, while Sandbox mode encourages players to nurture a nation from scratch, testing their strategic prowess over time.

The game’s developers plan a collaborative early access phase, seeking community feedback to shape evolving features. This includes introducing elements like weapons of mass destruction, effects of pollution, and varied campaign goals. The final release, anticipated in early 2025, will also feature additional localizations in languages such as French, German, Spanish, Polish, Simplified Chinese, and Russian.

Realpolitiks 3: Earth and Beyond aims to set a new standard in the grand strategy genre, allowing players to witness their legacies unfold both on Earth and in space. The game is available to wishlist now on major digital platforms.
